r.KHI.i.X. Jan. G.-The fears of the
I.ondou: and New York raoney markers
have left Berlin comparatively un
touched. .The new year opened with a
remarkable _ plethora of money. Al
though" Brussels end Paris have discon
tinued discounting here, the mortgage
banks have resumed lending. , heir po
sition having been immensely strength
ened by the meeting a week 050 of the
Prussia* Hypo'theken Aktim tank and
the Deutsche Grundchuld bank. Tho
public is row regaining confidence in
these institutions and the return of ■ their
obligations Ms almost ceased. On the
other' hHjul the demand for mortgage
bank obligations is beginning ntresh.
The effect of the advance in the Bank
of England's rate was unusually s'.ijjht.
Hitherto the Reiehsbank had always
answered to the Bank of England ad
vance." In the present ca?e. however,
notwithstanding the unprecedented pres
sure after Doe. 31, the Reichsbank rate
of disco;. will be maintained.
The market ..considers this a certainty
owing to the rapid recovery since Jan.
I. The private rate, of dUcoont fell
rapidly t0.3% per cent, but rose again
to 4 per cent, in consequence of the rise
In the Rink of England's rate. Call
money, however, was abundant at 4 per
cent. The market believes [vba Reiehs
tank will maintain the present ofllcial
fitite until the Bank of England riducss
Its rate. Otherwise the Reichsbank could
make a j reduction sooner. English ex
change rose in consequence of the rise
in the Bank of England rate. ■■
The bourse followed New York's boom
in railways unwillingly, Berlin believing
the thing to bo overdue.
Among trans-Atlantic securities Cana
dian Pacifies took the lead.
Industrials encountered more unfavor
able influences, among them t>e decision
of the coke syndicate to reduce produc
tion 5 per cent. Other depressing in
fluences were the reduction in- the price
of roiled goods In South Germany, tho
-restriction in .output by the Siegeriand

MANILA, Dec. I.—The public schools in
the Pri'ipp'ne ar:hipelago ere now under
going transition from their former ex
tremely lax methods to a system of vig
orous centralized management, patterned
after the school systems in the United
States. Military and civil officiate agree
that in education lies the ultimate tolu
tion of the question of good citizenship
of the natives. The Philippine commis
sion has under consideration a bill es
tablishing a system of public education
and appropriating $1,650,000 «old for the
maintenance of public schools in 1901. The
measure was. prepared under the super
vision of Dr. B\ W. Atkinson, '.he gen
eral superintendent of education, who
since Sept. 1, when he assumed the duties
I of the office, has been working -owards
bringing systematic organization out of
the present chaotic condition.
Before being presented to Uie commis
sioners the bill was submitted to Gen.
MacAtthur and was indorsed by the mil
itary governor without/- reservation.
i Gens. Otis and Mac Arthur, in fact, both
strongly favored and advanced a pro
gressive educational policy, and both,
through their district commanders, have
reopened and organized schoote, furnish
ed text books and teachers, m-iny of the
latter being soldiers, and appropriated
money for expenses in localities where
funds could not be raised by local sub
scription or taxation.
SOME DETAILS.
The bill empowers the general super
intendent to appoint, subject to the mili
tary governor's approval, superintendents
in each of the eighteen military districts,
at salaries of $2,000 to $2,500. .Local ad
visory school boards are to be organized
in the municipalities as civil government
becomes established. English is decreed
to be the basis of all instruction and au
thority is given to secure 300 teachers
from the United States at salari-js of $75
to $100 monthly, traveling expenses to
Manila to be paid by the government.
One section of the bill reads as follows:
"No religious denomination shall have
the right to teach its particular faith
in schools partly or wholly supported by
public funds."
'Financial aid by the government is to
be provided in localities where ther-i is
sufficient evidence that poverty prevents
the establishment of schools. Provi-l-n
is made for training natives as teachers
in English and $500,000 la authorized to be
expended, under direction of the mili
tary government, for school buildings,
and a like sum for furniture. Appropria
tions are made for conducting three nor
mal schools, and an army officer Is di
rected to report upon a proposal to found
an agricultural school. The first report
of S«r>t. Atkinson described education
under Spanish rnle during two yeara of
American military government and the
present outlook. Under the Spaniards
there was b»ut owe teacher to '1.'20J in
habitants, no scKool houses to speak of
outsida of the dwellings o-f teachers, and
no good text books. The books In use"
contained partly religious instructions,
the reeilatioms were mechanical and the
compensation of the teachers was inade
quate. Army officers who superintend
improvements of the schools have worked
in most cases conscientiously and with
good effect, and have been generally en-,
couraged at the aptitude of the pupils.
' -'; &CHOOJLS IN MANILA. ~ "*> ■
'■,vWhile" many of the provincial schools
have been taught by ecclesiastics, 1' the
public schools in Manila-, have practically
all been in- charge of "natives ./•■ There are
row thirty-six schools in Manila,* r.one
.of which '. were :j founded" toy Americans,
* though all ', are supported .. through' the
provost marshal's department,' and eight
more are; being established. ■ iOng-lish is
required to be taught, and several Amer-•
loan female ' teachers began :' terms of
.service- last month. David P. '-Barrow?,
the newly appointed superintendent *•' of
Manila schools; states ,• in a ' report just
submitted to the military government
and civil commissioners that under Span
ish rule the " public schools were * prac
tically private institutions, subsidized by
the government, to which parents who
could afford to pay for their tuition sent
their children. The'public ■ schools dur
the : investment- of • IS9S were • reopened
under, ; charge of Father. D. -McKinnon,
chaplain of the First California volun-:
teers. Since then the salaries of "th'o
teachers, ■ including-.• arrears, have' bean
paid by the military government. Na
tive meanwhile, have been tak

able to teach it. The military govern
ment has also '■ supported three higher

namely, a teachers', normal school, tha
Athenaeum (Jesuit) and the girls' mu
nicipal school. The last-named, has the
only really creditable school building in
Manila. It is being taken over by the
American school authorities. The sisters
in charge of the gif Is' school are study
ing English and _ lending every aid pos
sible. The assuming." of .actual control
of the normal scnooi and the Athenaeum
involves some questions now pending- be
tween the Americans and the church au
thorities. "

to both sides. A movement is now on V
foot to amalgamate all the mr-tal wint- ■', 'i,

and steel workers, machinists and kin

of Labor, with which all the separate
